What seems to be lost by most in this forum, and really most fans in general judging by comments on Twitter is that no one really values special teams coverage units. I went to the game last Saturday night and one thing that stood out to me like crazy is that Troy Apke is a great gunner. The guy just fly’s downfield on punt coverage, and that’s why he’s going to make this team. Barber is also a good kick coverage guy and I think he’s our personal protector on punts so, that’s another reason why he’s very likely to make this team. Could other guys do those jobs? I suppose so, but it’s beyond clear that Apke & Barber are two of our best at it and our coaches have faith in them and value them in that role because special teams are very important to winning ballgames also. https://washingtonfootballwire.usatoday.com/gallery/washingtons-final-53-man-roster-projection-ahead-of-tuesdays-deadline-washington-football-team-roster-cuts/?taid=612d8a865b62820001eafb73&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter Apke and Barber makes the cut. This just an projection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4209 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Is it 17 or 18. Whatever the number is then I came up with a few more. David Sharpe David Steinmetz Beau Benzschaw Gabe Wright Bunmi Rotini Jared Norris Jared Kunaszyk Darryl Roberts Darrick Forrest Danny Johnson Then there is BADA, Toney, Tohill, Wise, Wright, Ismael and Martin. These has to be the final cuts but this is speculation. There should not be any surpurises I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously...a clip where Barber has to slide across the formation to block Patrick Queen and a clip where Patterson gets to stand in his own footprints and pick up Geno Stone? Come on, random guy on Twitter. Have a little more integrity than that. It’s nice to see Patterson with a solid blitz pickup. I think he’s a lock too. I’m entirely unconvinced that he’s more reliable in pass pro than Barber. And I’m also entirely unconvinced that that’s the relevant question, anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want that to happen, although I do expect them to keep Barber (against the wishes of most of the fanbase). But man, it would be funny to watch the comment sections melt down over the RB3 choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, random guy on Twitter. Have a little more integrity than that. I am just laughing because it's the first thing that popped up on twitter when I opened it. Had to share it, especially because I had nothing else to back up the "he's good in pass protection" claim since he's our 3rd and 1 guy and not in on passing plays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 My guy Toohill? Probably more likely an opening for the veteran addition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, now you have my answer @turtle28, assuming Peyton makes it over JM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
